Ashanti can't win for losing. She has experienced a lot in the past 2 years. From a massive decrease in sales, the sinking popularity of her record label, and the death of her cousin a couple of months ago. Now she has to deal with her ex-manager lawsuit. According to Yahoo news, In the Manhattan federal court suit, former manager Linda Berk said she had guided Ashanti, 25, from an unknown minor to a "music and entertainment superstar" before her contract was cut short in May 2003.
Berk and Ashanti met in 1993 and signed an initial contract in 1999 that agreed Berk would act as a co-manager with Ashanti's mother Tina Douglas. Four years later she was informed the contract would be terminated, the suit said. "The contract naturally expired and we didn't renew it," a spokesman for Ashanti said
